Re: New FW release: Small selftest update
Somehow I got an email? asking how I? did the updating. As I have confused two programs in my PC, it is best to answer here. I used STM32CubeProgrammer
First you need STM32CubeProgrammer, mine is a bit old but it works in? Win7. This? a link to several versions of it. https://www.st.com/en/development-tools/stm32cubeprog.html When I plugged in? the USB cable it was a bit tight and I had to press harder to? for it to make contact Then I pressed the Jog wheel down and turned the SA on. USB cable was connected now. Windows noticed that a USB device was connected, but the display of SA stayed blank. Then I clicked a button on the STM32CubeProgrammer and loaded the FW file and updating started. The STM32 ST-LINK Utility is not the most intuitive or easiest program? to use, but it is small, so this does not really matter. There is only? limited number things you can do with it. This is what I used, sorry about the confusion |

We have a lot of those around here, and probably the rest of the UK too. The 458.525 to 458.925MHz chunk of spectrum (also 869.40 to 869.65 MHz) used by them, seems to have evolved from what was originally intended, and the portable traffic control systems now appear to be the main user, possibly as a result of driving (no pun intended) everyone else out of that part of the band. Try my web sdr, and choose the "Ant 2 458 to 460MHz PMR" profile, you will hear loads of them. I'm just waiting (again, no pun intended) for someone to work out the data protocol, to maybe help speed up my commute :-) Regards, Martin |
Finally got to make use of the TinySA
Hi,
Just thought I'd let you know that I finally made use of my TinySA Ultra tracking down some interference where I work with some testing equipment. Using a handheld yagi I made for 70cms I tracked down the inteference to a set of portable traffic lights that were using the same frequency as the test kit @ 458.5MHz. So the TinySA definitely earned its keep today. |
Maximum available FM modulation frequency of the RF generator
I noted that the Maximum available FM modulation frequency of the RF generator is only 3.5 kHz. Even if I set, for example, 10 kHz, the generator sets to 3.5 kHz anyway. Having to test a broadcast FM stereo receiver, having an higher frequency could be useful. Is it possible? |
Enhancement: Enable Load/Store to SD for Signal Generator Configuration #98
Add the ability to save and restore Signal Generator Configuration to SD card.
Suggested Implementation:
Use a different filename suffix for saved Signal Generator configuration files versus Spectrum Analyzer configuration files.
NOTE: For simplicity, the suggested implementation uses two types of files and separate dialogs for loading Spectrum Analyzer and Signal Generator configurations. But I would not be opposed to combining the files so when in a LOAD SD user could choose either type of file and effect a MODE change as appropriate when performing the load. I think I actually prefer this. Github Issue #98 created. |
Re: New Ultra Failing Self Test
Did you forget to connect the SMA patch cable between the two ports? Does your unit also fail calibration?On Mon, Feb 26, 2024 at 9:34?AM geo via <geo751=proton.me@groups.io> wrote: I Just received a new TinySA Ultra, gave it a full charge and it failed selftest #1 and stopped. |

It is http vs. https. Any site not using https is considered to be insecure. Which does not necessarily mean unsafe.

Defect Report: Restore Multi-Band from SD Does Not Restore RBW
A multi-band configuration when restored from SD does not restore RBW. Duplicate by changing the RBW followed by a restore. Oddly, the RBW field in the display shows the incorrect RBW actually being used but when you click on it to bring up the RBW setting the correct/desired value is checked, not the one actually in use.
NOTE: This is only a defect for configurations WITH multi-band AND when saved to SD, not one of the 4 in-memory slots. If you prefer, I can open an issue in for this in github. Not sure of proper protocol. Peter |
